MTU-5C GEOPHYSICAL RECEIVERULTRA-WIDEBAND MT (UMT) SYSTEM

Introducing our new UMT (Ultra-Wideband MT) system
One system does it all!
The new Phoenix UMT system supersedes older separate AMT, MT, BMT andLong Period MT systems. Differentiation of AMT, MT, BMT and LP-MT is nolonger required– with no need for expensive, separate deployments ofdifferent systems to capture the necessary spectrum. This simplifies andsaves money on procurement, training, operation and maintenance thus
providing lowest total cost of ownership (TCO).
Thanks to EMpower, our new advanced databasemanagement and processing software, operations
are extremely simplified. EMpower ismultiplatform and intuitive, users can easily
deploy the MTU-5C to acquire the entire spectrum
to automatically cover more than 8 decades; thiscan be done with a single set of UMT magnetic
sensors model MTC-100 series. Sensors aredetected automatically by the system for easyacquisition and processing. The MTU-5C also works withother receivers of the family including the MTU-8A andthe RXU-8A.

Through-the-night acquisition captures AMT data at the optimal time, greatly
mitigates the AMT and MT dead band problem. Shorter daytime recordings
capture the high frequency part of the spectrum and some parts of the low
frequency bands, thanks to the simultaneous full spectrum acquisition.
An essential complement for long period (LMT)
data, high-frequency data provides superior
inversions of both shallow and deep sections
as well as reliably identifying MT static shift,which cannot be identified in widelyseparated, LP-MT only stations. Without
mitigation of static shift or high-frequency
data, LP-MT inversions are always somewhat
uncertain.

Phoenix Geophysics is the world leader in MTwith thousands of systems sold worldwide
since 1980
